The transportation method of linear programming is extended to a more general class of problem, for which the "stepping-stone method" of Charnes and Cooper fails. The method is applicable to various ...

In linear programming problems, as in most economic problems, the input data are often uncertain. So we haven't finished when we've obtained the optimal solution; we still need to ask, how would this ...
